Here are some easy Mother’s Day crafts this year that don’t require access to the church’s craft closet.
Mom deserves some extra-good crafts this year! (Of course Dad deserves extra crafts this year, too, but your turn will come in June!)
So Dad, what are you going to do to make sure your kids have something special to give mom on Sunday? We’ve pulled together some easy Mother’s Day crafts that don’t take too much craftiness, time, or supplies on your part.
Easy Mother’s Day Crafts
1. Handprint Flower Bouquet
Idea taken from TheBestIdeasforKids.com
Supplies Needed:
3 different colors of cardstock
Green construction paper or cardstock
Flesh colored construction paper or cardstock
White cardstock (12×12 in. piece)
Glue stick
Instructions:
Determine how many flowers you’d like your bouquet to have, then trace each child’s hand on the different colors of cardstock a corresponding number of times. Cut out each hand.
To make the flesh colored arm holding the bouquet, trace your child’s hand again, this time including his/her forearm.
Cut out strips of green paper in cylindrical shapes for the stems of the flowers. Cut enough stems for the number of flower hands.
Glue flowers and stems onto the white cardstock as shown in the picture.
If you’d like, you can have your children write mom a message on the cardstock. Ideas include reasons your child is thankful for Mom or his/her favorite activity they do together.
